The outstanding play received high praises from Urshela's teammates and manager.

"I know he has a great arm," Michael Brantley said of Urshela. "I've been watching him all year. He's been making great plays, on the run, backhand plays. That was pretty special right there. A fast runner like Gardner running down the baseline, too, didn't have much time. Great play. Phenomenal."

Manager Terry Francona was also impressed.

"That kind of looked like that Brooks Robinson play way back," Indians manager Terry Francona said. "That was a heck of a play. Especially with Brett Gardner running. That was some kind of play."

The Indians went on to beat the Yankees 5-4 in 16 innings on a walk-off single by Brantley.
